Anantara Villa Padierna Palace Benahavís Marbella Resort - A Leading Hotel of the World
Tripplo's verdict, based on guest reviews
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 26 September 2026 · How we review hotels
Anantara Villa Padierna Palace Benahavís Marbella Resort - A Leading Hotel of the World is best for golf and wellness enthusiasts looking for classic luxury. Holding a Booking.com score of 9.3 across 374 reviews, the property features three championship 18-hole golf courses, Tuscan-inspired architecture, and an expansive Roman-style spa. A potential drawback is its inland setting away from the beach, meaning guests must travel to reach the sea.
Guests score it 9.3 out of 10 — the average across the 11 hotels we list in Marbella is 9.1.
What Guests Loved
- Golf enthusiasts have immediate access to three distinct courses—Flamingos, Alferini, and Tramores—offering diverse challenges and views of the Mediterranean.
- The resort's design evokes an Italian estate, featuring over 1,200 original works of art, manicured amphitheaters, and serene fountains that create a tranquil atmosphere.
Things to Consider
- Located in the hills of Benahavís, the resort is not directly on the coast. However, the hotel provides a seamless, regular shuttle service to its private beach club.
- The sprawling palace grounds and separate villa wings mean guests must navigate long corridors and outdoor pathways. Staff are readily available to assist with golf buggy transfers upon request.

Rooms & which one to pick
Our tip: Couples after a bit of extra space and a view should book the Junior Suite with Lake View, which adds a sitting area and lake outlook over the standard Junior Suite. Families or groups needing more room are better off in the Two Bedroom Pool Villa, with two king beds, a private pool and garden across 120 m² for up to four guests. If budget is the priority, the Deluxe Double or Twin Room covers the basics at 20 m².

Reviews from Google“La Veranda completely exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived until the very last minute, everything felt effortless, elegant, and genuinely welcoming. The atmosphere is beautiful, the food is exceptional, and the level of hospitality is exactly what you hope for at a luxury hotel. What truly made our experience unforgettable, however, was the incredible service. Cucky, Sol, Chivas, and Manuel are absolute gems. They made us feel so welcome, remembered every little detail, and created such a warm and personal experience that we genuinely looked forward to seeing them each time. They were attentive without ever being intrusive, always smiling, incredibly professional, and went above and beyond to make every meal special. It's rare to come across a team that makes you feel this cared for. They are a huge reason why we'll be coming back and why we'll recommend La Veranda to everyone visiting Marbella. Thank you, Cucky, Sol, Chivas, and Manuel, for making our stay so memorable. You turned a wonderful restaurant into an experience we'll never forget. Five stars aren't enough.”
“We had dinner at Sushi99 today and had a fantastic experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel truly welcome with their warm and friendly service. Salvador Jiménez gave us excellent wine recommendations that paired perfectly with our meal, and Reduan took great care of us throughout the evening. He also recommended the Rocher99 dessert, which was absolutely delicious. Thank you both for your outstanding hospitality. I’ll back”
“From the moment I arrived until the moment I left, every aspect of my stay exceeded my expectations. This property is the definition of true luxury, beautifully designed, full of taste, and offering exceptional value for the price. The rooms are absolutely amazing, and the housekeeping team deserves special recognition. Their attention to detail was outstanding, with so many thoughtful touches throughout the room that made my stay feel even more special and personal. What impressed me most was the level of hospitality throughout the entire hotel. Everyone, from the top management to every member of the staff, went above and beyond to ensure my stay was memorable. I truly felt like a valued VIP guest. I would especially like to recognize Narges from Guest Relations. She is a true star employee. From welcoming me on arrival to saying goodbye at departure, she was always warm, attentive, professional, and incredibly helpful. She genuinely cared about making my stay exceptional, and her kindness and dedication made an already wonderful experience even more special. Thank you to the entire team for an unforgettable stay. I look forward to returning.”
“Spent 9 days at this beautiful hotel. The service was excellent. By the end of the 9 days a lot of the staff were like friends. Very personable. The breakfast buffet was above and beyond amazing! The beach and tennis club are also fantastic. I highly recommend. Flavia and Javier always went above and beyond!!! We will miss you both!!”
